wah.. wat gym open at 5.45am ohh? got special happy hour service one is it...

my RM2 more sound solution.. open freehub, dig out all grease... throw sand in.. guarantee sound so damn garang you will jump off your bike...

no offense, but... it's crazy to buy sound with $$$ i like the days of shimano's silent clutch hubs (and we had to pay more for silent clutch hubs)... those were the fad back then... no sound = serenity... enjoy scenery and shit.. nowadays... all things terbalik adi... WTF world???

from their road range...

Sorry. My error. I ter-ate the "wake up" at 5:45am to attend 7:00am TRX session.

Since yesterday, auditor showing her un-friendly garang face and attitude while requesting / chasing me for documents. now u know why i stressed up! mad.gif

wife reject my proposal - convert the store to bike room. mad.gif

Today got new idea , 3rd bedroom make it to study + guest + bike room  rclxm9.gif

your condo 3rd bedroom must be huge man! you staying 1,700++ sq ft condo?

i'm now desperately looking for new place! I been looking for 1 since long time ago... yet nothing that suite me or makes me straight away want to book pay deposit !

Any ideal condo for Cyclist with budget around RM400k? off course the square feet need to be at least 931sq ft, my old place.

i thinks my new place is much smaller with 800sq ft i guess...

35 updates from my last visit...! im back! yesterday on leave! renewed 5 years driving license! hehe...

the only time my legs are cramp is during 42km marathon... should be lack of mileage clocked on legs and de-hydration faster than hydration... cramp...

knowing ur legs by going more distance and longer plus more frequents, it's helps to prevent cramp.

since then, cycling never have cramp... even my 100km ultra... no cramp...

oh yeah... in my last 42km recently (where i only train in last 2 weeks), or 210km ride to Ipoh from KL, i had Hammer endurolytes kaw kaw! 1 hour 2 biji Hammer endurolytes pills to prevent cramp. at least it's work well for me.

Xero? My golden coloured Wheel on my Giant TCR SL3 is Xero Golden wheel !!! thumbup.gif

This Sunday, anyone is riding up Fraser hill ???

wah... i thought the endurolytes is for speedy replacement of lost electrolytes as hydration is too slow in replacing it....  tai tau got alternative use punya...

haha... i almost never cramp for the longest time.. last time forgot when adi...i must be full of electrolytes.. YAY!!! no need bring biddon next time... lighter weight for me

when teleportation is a reality... i'll go fraser's anytime anyone ask me... driving 70K to get to KKB isn't wat i consider fun..

For the sake of KOM training, and sake of Fraser hill photo with lifting up bike in front of Tower clock, 70km is worth it...

we are not doing it weekly nor monthly ma...

soon, im going to try new nutrition... new diet... it's can gives you "explosive power" whenever needed in cycling... no wonder my P2K member can be so strong. it's train smart... brows.gif

i shall adopt the soon to learn new learn nutrition apply to ultra running as well. but, im still not meet up with friend to find out more details... sweat.gif

sometimes, knowing too much, information over flow and this create confusion and its make you cant improve.

aiduh.... y la u showing the top notch nutrition yet not available in Msia...

come i teach u how to DIY to make your own sport drinks. it's works well for me.

Here the contains:
water base on the portion below, (i mix in 1.5 liter water bottle with more than 500 ml water i thinks)
Honey (can be any honey that you like, be it expensive 1, or cheap 1, just for some flavoring plus cab) (1 small tea spoon or more)
sea salt (1 small tea spoon)
lemon (i put 1 ice cube)

done! Shake well... if extra put in fridge, consume within 2-3 days.

portion wise, 'agak-agak" lo... try until you satisfy with the flavour....

Hmm... 2-2.5k will sound reasonable for me... I was thinking if I know some brand I would narrow my search and it will be easier... Cause brand like Giant, Colnago etc etc definitely will not meet my requirement..  laugh.gif  laugh.gif

So I was thinking about Exitway or Polygon... I these are some least famous brand that suit newbies..??  biggrin.gif

Giant vs Colnago cant compare light to light... it's different level.


QUOTE(butthead @ Aug 11 2012, 11:01 AM)
stay away from exitway... U can look at at polygon, khs & merida..slightly fancier & pricier...u can take a look at scott, avanti maybe..

if u want pologon, can visit RodaLink, Merida visit Pedalsport, Scott can visit KH Cycle at Damansara Perdana.

Brand can be from US, but manufacturer mostly done in China.

Er.. some observation i done to myself.

FYI, i have no problem riding my Giant TCR SL3 when i brought it. in fact, im loving it when im riding it.

Why?

bcoz i'm been riding bike since small. apa-apa macam punya bikes i ride before. started with kid bike, cycle around in my small hometown... then when growing, change to bigger bike, normal bicycle, with front basket....

then, my mum's bike... my grandpa bike (the big wheels, black color bike) then finally mountain bike.... and somehow, i found there's old roadbike (steel) in store... then start riding.

when i'm 1st riding the roadbike, im really dont like the bending... but it's gives me speeds... im start to love it.

for newbie, unless you know what's your direction, your commitment towards your goal, else forget everything, just get few hundreds roadbike to ride....

where to find few hundreds roadbike you might ask. I dont know any specific one in KL, but you can go to your neighborhood's normal bike shop asking.

last time, when i "bising-bising" want to get mountain bike back in my hometown, i selected the model that's cost RM450... the bike owner have to order as he never bring in the bike. waited dont know how many days, finally i got my bike, was gila babi happy!

that's my cycling 2cent worth of experience.
